Children's Education

All Hallows welcomes children and youth to worship
and formation (education) opportunities each
week. Our staff is a dedicated group of
teachers who volunteer their time to share their
love and faith with the children. We strive to
welcome new children and their families throughout
the year and invite you to join us as we learn about
God's presence in our lives and infinite love for
us.

Sunday School for children begins at 10:15am in the
Parish House building behind our Brick Church.
Children will be escorted from Sunday School to the
Brick Church to join their parents midway through
the 10:30am Service.

On the Second Sunday of each month (excluding feast
days) Sunday School classroom sessions will not
occur. Instead children will attend the entire
10:30am Holy Eucharist Rite II Service that is a
Family Mass version every second Sunday, celebrated
with a short homily geared at younger
audiences. It's a shorter service with
children and youth learning about worship in the
Episcopal Church by serving as acolytes, lectors,
ushers and greeters. The Second Sunday Family
Mass occurs September through June and it has been
one our most popular Masses, attended by all
ages.

In addition to Sunday School activities, children of
all ages are always welcome to attend our 8:00am
Chapel or 10:30am Brick Church Services throughout
the year. Children's bulletins, crayons, colored
pencils, and paper are available in both the Chapel
and the Brick Church. Please ask an
usher if you need any assistance.

Our Sunday School classrooms and Parish Office House
are located at:
All Hallows Brick Church - Parish Office House
3600 Solomon's Island Rd
Edgewater, Maryland 21037

All Hallows Nursery

The goal of the All Hallows Nursery is to provide
children under three with a secure, entertaining,
and comfortable environment while giving parents
the chance to attend and enjoy the 10:30 service
in the Brick Church.
The All Hallows nursery is open beginning at
10:20am on Sunday mornings and remains open for
the duration of the 10:30am worship service in the
Brick Church every Sunday. It is located in
the Parish House (the building next to the Brick
Church) next to the women's restroom. We
have lots of toys and books for the children to
play with! Parents are welcome to stay in
the Nursery whenever they would like. If you
have any questions about the Nursery or are
interested in volunteering, please contact
Katherine Lloyd, our Nursery Coordinator, at jlloydjr3@comcast.net.

Sunday School

We teach children Bible basics, differentiating
between the younger grades and older elementary,
giving older elementary students complex
questioning and more advanced activities allowing
them to take their Bible knowledge to the next
level and relate it to their lives. Music,
stories, skits, puppetry, crafts, cooking, and
games are some of the things children look forward
to on Sunday mornings.

Christian Formation Opportunities For All Ages
(September through June)

Lifelong Christian Faith Formation in the
Episcopal Church is lifelong growth in the
knowledge, service and love of God as followers of
Christ and is informed by Scripture, Tradition and
Reason. Through the Episcopal Church, God
Invites all people to enter into a prayerful life
of worship, continuous learning, and to hear the
Word of God through scripture, to honor church
teachings, and continually spread the Good News of
the risen Christ and ministering to all.

Almost every week you can find parishioners
gathering after one of our Services at the Chapel
or Brick Church for about 45 minutes to discuss
various topics. The sessions are usually
lead by the rector or guest speaker and provide
continuous learning opportunities for all.

Christian Formation Opportunities are generally
held:
After 8:00am Service at the Chapel on the 1st and
3rd Sundays of the month.
After the 1030am Service at the Brick Church on
the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month.
Check our calendar
to confirm the next Christian Formation
opportunity.
